Here are some pictures from our field trip today...

We had fun playing "word mingle" today!  Each student had a sight word sticker, and everyone "mingled" around the room writing their friends' words.  I was soooo proud of the kids...they had to read names on the recording sheet, read sight words, AND write sight words. Wow...what a way to start the day!!

We also had a visit from Zero the Hero today...can you believe it's already the 90th day of kindergarten??

He brought fruit loops and string to make pattern necklaces. (and a few extra to eat, too :)

We used very special magic snow to write sight words today.  How many can you read??

Look what we made today...snowman brace maps!!

We've been reading SNEEZY THE SNOWMAN this week during our reader's workshop time.  Yesterday, we made a book called "If You Are A Snowman".  The kids thought of something a snowman should NOT do...just like Sneezy in the story...otherwise it might melt!

Today, we made my favorite kindergarten recipe...Snow Ice Cream!  (since Sneezy ended the story eating ice cream :)  Here's the recipe, if you would like to try it at home:

8 cups clean snow

1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk

1 tsp vanilla (optional)

Mix together and enjoy. Yummers!
